      I do auto glass in Denver, Land Rovers are productive for me too because no one wants to touch them and everyone is expecting to pay a high cost. In reality they're quite easy to do, (Ford also borrowed heavily from LR so in many ways its like doing some Fords) it's just difficult (and costly) to source parts if you break anything in addition...bit of a double-edged sword, so, extra incentive to get good. Thankfully my warranty rate is still approaching zero.

      I am a economics student. In regard to the zero lower bound; the nominal rate being zero. The central banks cant do much unless inflation is raised. Instead of aiming at 2%, the level will be higher for probably a year... with that in mind, most assets will go up in nominal!! value. Tyler thus suffers from money illusion in the last bit...

    • @Jens_van_den_Broek
      @Jens_van_den_Broek 3 года назад +3

      @@GlennC789 inflation in itself is “good” in nominal terms. You get “richer” in face value. Example: asset A in 2020 was 10K and is 11K in 2021. That’s an inflation rate of 10%.
      That is what’s happening now. For (almost) every market this is happening.
      The formula
      real value= nominal value/inflation level
      then indicates that if the inflation level gets higher the real value goes down. (Extreme example of this is the hyperinflation in Germany during the war.)
      So in essence the real value of things goes down. Due to the nominal interest rates being low because we are still recovering form the financial crisis in 2008 the zero lower bound is reached. Therefore, the Central banks (could be the fed if you are American) needs to let the average inflation rate creep up. Way higher than the standard goal of 2%.. to eventually be able to control the economy again.
      So you are deff right. Everything shows signs of being bubbles. (Especially bitcoins etc) Even stocks nowadays are highly sensitive to the markets. And the housing market is heating up as well...
      The reason for this is quite simple. Lending money is cheap nowadays. As far as I am told and can predict the interest rates you will get at the commercial banks will remain low for at least a year and maybe stay low till 2030. 2030 is what my professor argued through demographics. In fact, you can look at Japan. They are 15 years ahead of Europe and the US in regard to everything essentially.
      Thus I guess long story short, investing now is cheap. Once the central bank nominal interest goes up, you need to watch out..

Then overheated. $3000 to fix off warranty, $1400 for a rental car. Fortunately there was no coolant in the oil or I'd be completely screwed. If you see a coolant leak, beware, and don't wait to get it checked out. I got stranded when it overheated.

The truck it was very well maintained, more than normally actually, Every fluid was changed on time, oil changes we're done earlier than recommend and more. My dad even put premium gasoline in it. I'm actually wondering if over all those miles that's what ended up damaging it due to the way it ignites. Also the AC went out, doorhandles always broke, paint was peeling and many more things, these since were taken care of, it probably totaled itself by all the repairs expenses. I still love the Suburbans/Tahoe/Silverado though and they are most likely more reliable than a Range.

    I have had 5 Range Rovers, 2 Jaguars and several Land Rovers and nothing is truer than: "When you buy one of those vehicles, you need to buy two: one to drive while the other's being repaired." Despite that I still love Range Rovers .... 💖

      Lol! Ain’t that the truth! My Range Rover had head gasket and air suspension issues. Beautiful vehicle but it felt like it spent more time with the dealer. Had to trade it for something reliable :)

    You can turn on the heated seats by clicking the climate control wheel on your side and turning it to the right for heated and left for cooled!!

    I've stuck to my "change the oil every 5,000 kms regardless" rule, and it has served me well.

      @@MrCarGuy I use cheaper own brand oil and do it every 5K. I don't rack up big miles, so it works well.

    I have changed my oil every 10-15k miles since I bought the car new. I have 248k miles on it now.
    I think the higher miles in-between oil changes is fine if you let the engine get up to full operating temperature pretty much every time you start it, which I do. I drive her pretty hard and often. Keeps her fit. 👌

    I always find these comments on reliability interesting. Ive owned Range Rovers (Sport model and SVR) for the last 3 years - and not one single problem.. Nothing broken, infotainment works fine, no repairs needed at all apart from a service recall, and replacing fuel lines due to squirrels (i kid you not) chewing apart the lines!
    In terms of service intervals, i never EVER follow manufacture guidelines. Its pretty simple - change your oil like you would any car - no longer than every 6- 7000 miles.

    I’ve owned five Range Rovers (my current one has 173,000 miles on the clock!) and will undoubtedly buy a sixth and have never had a serious issue with any of them so WTF do people do to their cars to make them so troublesome?

    Take the money and run! I just sold my son's 2013 Mini Cooper for $2,000 over book. It was a nice car with 81,000 miles but it was a Mini, and that means it was only a matter of time before something goes wrong with the thing. I was so glad to see that thing go.
